It is well known in the realm of quantum mechanics and information theory that the entropy is non-decreasing for the class of unital physical processes. However, in general, the entropy does not exhibit monotonic behavior. This has restricted the use...
Rotation estimation of high precision from an RGB-D object observation is a huge challenge in 6D object pose estimation, due to the difficulty of learning in the non-linear space of SO(3). In this paper, we propose a novel rotation estimation network...
According to physicist David Mermin, the science wars was a series of exchanges between scientists and "sociologists, historians, and literary critics" whom the scientists thought to be "ludicrously ignorant of science, making all kinds of nonsensica...
We identify conditions for the presence of negative specific heat in non-relativistic self-gravitating systems and similar systems of attracting particles. The method used, is to analyse the Virial theorem and two soluble models of systems of att...
The paper presents two examples of non-traditional using of program specialization by Turchin's supercompilation method. In both cases we are interested in syntactical properties of residual programs produced by supercompilation. In the first example...
The development of Machine Learning (ML) models is more than just a special case of software development (SD): ML models acquire properties and fulfill requirements even without direct human interaction in a seemingly uncontrollable manner. Nonethele...
Mar 2, 2005 · The Great Kat plays classical songs on violin in a heavy metal style, it's really interesting. Vannessa Mae plays more of a rock/modern type of violin. She plays the famous guitar song …
Recently it is shown that there are three families of stochastic one-dimensional non-equilibrium lattice models for which the single-shock measures form an invariant subspace of the states of these models. Here, both the stationary states and dynam...
In general, flat outputs of a nonlinear system may depend on the system's state and input as well as on an arbitrary number of time derivatives of the latter. If a flat output which also depends on time derivatives of the input is known, one may pose...
The paper presents a new method for finding first integrals of ordinary difference equations which do not possess Lagrangians, nor Hamiltonians. As an example we solve a third order nonlinear ordinary differential equation and its invariant discretiz...

Singular monopoles are nonabelian monopoles with prescribed Dirac-type singularities. All of them are delivered by the Nahm's construction. In practice, however, the effectiveness of the latter is limited to the cases of one or two singularities. We...
Let $Δ$ be a rank 2 hyperbolic root system. Then $Δ$ has generalized Cartan matrix $H(a,b)= \left(\begin{smallmatrix} ~2 & -b\\ -a & ~2 \end{smallmatrix}\right)$ indexed by $a,b\in\mathbb{Z}$ with $ab\geq 5$. If $a\neq b$, then $Δ$ is non-symmetri...
Interface-dominated materials such as nanocrystalline thin films have emerged as an enthralling class of materials able to engineer functional properties of transition metal oxides widely used in energy and information technologies. In particular, it...
Feb 18, 2026 · African Americans constitute one of the largest ethnic groups in the United States. African Americans are mainly of African ancestry, but many have non-Black ancestors as well. Learn …
Robot manipulation for untangling 1D deformable structures such as ropes, cables, and wires is challenging due to their infinite dimensional configuration space, complex dynamics, and tendency to self-occlude. Analytical controllers often fail in the...
The pull test is a destructive detection method, and it can t measure the actual length of the bolt. As such, ultrasonic echo is one of the most important non-destructive testing methods for bolt quality detection. In this paper, the variance modal d...
We introduce a solvable system of equations that describes non-extremal multicenter solutions to six-dimensional ungauged supergravity coupled to tensor multiplets. The system involves a set of functions on a three-dimensional base metric. We obtain...
On the occasion of centenary anniversary of the Great Kanto Earthquake and commencement of radio broadcasting in Japan, this study reiterates the paramount importance of medium-wave (MW) AM broadcasting in safeguarding public safety and security. Uti...
In this paper we investigate a priori error estimates for the space-time Galerkin finite element discretization of a simplified semilinear gradient enhanced damage model. The model equations are of a special structure as the state equation consists o...
